Sunderland are clinging onto their play-off spot by the skin of their teeth after the latest round of League One fixtures.
Nervy Black Cats fans watched on as promotion rivals Sheffield Wednesday, Plymouth and Wycombe played fixtures that had previously been postponed due. This could have spelled disaster as all three sides nearly claimed victories - an outcome that would have dethroned Sunderland from the play-off places.
However, an in-form Sheff Wed conceded an 83rd-minute equaliser at home to Accrington Stanley - despite playing them off the park for large chunks of the game - allowing Sunderland supporters to breathe a huge sigh of relief. The Owls still have a game in hand on the Black Cats as their game against Fleetwood Town last month was called off due to bad weather. For now, they are outside the play-off places by a point but that outcome could be different when the two teams meet on April 26.
